Power System Protection and Control (1.5 CEUs)

Course Code: ELEC001
Date: 18 Aug - 20 Aug 2021
Location:

Education @ Your Desk. A Live Webinar Class means that you will attend the class via the web using your computer. There are scheduled breaks for coffee and lunch. You use a microphone, headset, or your phone and are able to interact with the instructor and other students while following notes while watching the presentation slides online just as you would in a live classroom. Notes are posted online. For an extra cost a hard copy can be requested.



The virtual classroom is becoming more and more popular, and we have a lot of experience teaching in this format. The only real difference between a live in-class and live via webinar is where you sit and what you look at. You can learn from the comfort of your own home or office. You pay less for the live webinar format than you would for the in-class format, and you do not have to travel to another city to attend the class. Please contact us at [email protected] for Special Group & Corporate Rates for one or more participants.



A certificate of completed Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be granted at the end of this course. Continuing Education Unit (CEU)

Description
This course covers basic protection concepts and applications. The main objective of this course is to give students an understanding of the technical aspects of power system protection and management. The concepts and operation theory of electromechanical and modern relays (electronic, digital, and IEDs) will be covered as well as proper protection to individual components such as distance, feeder, directional, transformer, busbar, motor and generator protections. The course also includes an overview of electromechanical and digital relays.
 
Objective
Power-system protection is a branch of electrical power engineering that deals with the protection of electrical power systems from faults through the isolation of faulted parts from the rest of the electrical network. The objective of a protection scheme is to keep the power system stable by isolating only the components that are under fault, whilst leaving as much of the network as possible still in operation.
 
Target Audience
Employees who require a general knowledge of or refresh their knowledge in Protection Systems to fully understand how they interface with their equipment, but who do not work directly on the relays, eg: supervisors, electricians, technicians, technologists, P&C operators and area dispatchers.
 
Upon successful completion of this course, the participants will have reliably demonstrated the ability to:
  • Understand general protection schemes used at a power generation station that differs from protection schemes used at a transmission substation or at a distribution substation.
  • Explain the principles of protective relaying including the theory and operation of modern relays (electronic, digital, and Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs).
  • Understand different relay systems and how they respond to a fault.
  • Understand the applications of protection devices in the design of protection systems for transmission lines, feeders, transformers, busbars, motors and generators.
  • Understand the operating principles of protection system components, e.g. fuses, relays, circuit breakers, instrument transformers and their applications for the design of protection systems for transmission lines, motors, generators and transformers.
  • Indicate the most common elements used to protect the different elements of the power network system.
  • Apply Current Transformers (CT) and Potential Transformers (PT) to relay systems.
